I've randomly generated a secret number N from 1 to 1000. Whoever posts the Nth reply to this thread wins the game!

However, the number is secret, so no one will know in advance what the winning post will be. Once this thread reaches 1000 replies I'll reveal what the secret number N is and who posted the winning post. The more posts you make, the more chances you have to win (though as usual, double posting is not allowed). Since I know what the number N is already, I won't be posting in this thread until the reveal at the end.

I'm not doing any kind of hash thing like faubi did to verify the number, but I am PMing it to myself so that I can check what it is wherever I am as long as I'm logged into the forum.

With all that said, let's go!

Also, since I can't post in the thread, if there's any clarifications I need to make I'll simply edit them in at the end of this opening post like faubi.
